Braves, Terrapin Beer Announce New Taproom At SunTrust Park

ATLANTA, GA — The Atlanta Braves and Terrapin Beer Company announced plans for a new taproom and microbrewery at The Battery Atlanta, adjacent to SunTrust Park.

According to a statement from team, the Terrapin Taproom will be operated by Delaware North and offer a rotating tap list that includes many of the signature beers. The Taproom will also feature Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q.

Adjacent to The Taproom will be the ATL Brew Lab. Both the Terrapin Taproom and the ATL Brew Lab will be located outside the Chop House gate entrance and stay open year-round.

The Terrapin Taproom and ATL Brew Lab are the result of a multi-year partnership between the Atlanta Braves and MillerCoors. Following the recent acquisition of Terrapin last month by Tenth and Blake, the craft and imports division of MillerCoors, Terrapin was picked to become the flagship craft brewery for the ballpark because of its strong local ties to the state.

"We wanted to partner with Terrapin because they've been crafting beers right up the road in Athens and have developed a strong southern following, so we knew right away they would be a natural fit with the Braves," said Derek Schiller, Braves president, business. "The Terrapin Taproom will pair Terrapin's freshest and newest beers with some down-home southern barbecue, which is sure to excite all of Braves Country."

Construction will begin in November, and The Terrapin Taproom and ATL Brew Lab are set to open at the start of the 2017 Braves season.
